Insights into ANKRD11‐related epilepsy from 163 people
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Ankyrin repeat domain 11 gene (ANKRD11) is the key disease gene for autosomal dominant KBG syndrome, and a subset of affected individuals develop epilepsy. However, comprehensive characterization of epilepsy‐related phenotypes and genotype–phenotype correlations in ANKRD11 variant carriers remains limited.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Epilepsy syndromes classification
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

Neonatal seizures: Advances in diagnosis and management
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) created the ILAE Neonatal Task Force that classified neonatal seizures, defined neonatal epilepsy syndromes, and specified treatment guidelines. These frameworks, in addition to improved access to genetic testing and other recent advances, have revolutionized the diagnosis and management of ...

Frontiers in EEG as a tool for the management of pediatric epilepsy: Past, present, and future
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) has evolved into an indispensable tool in pediatric epilepsy, fundamentally transforming the diagnosis, classification, and management of this condition. This review chronicles the historical journey of EEG from its groundbreaking inception to its current pivotal role in delineating distinct pediatric epilepsy ...

Congenital rubella associated with hypsarrhythmia. [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1976 A child with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia complicated by prolonged gastrointestinal and skin haemorrhages due to profound thrombocytopenia finally died of thrombotic occlusions of major cerebral arteries due to mucormycosis. Biopsy of any suspect lesion is needed urgently before prolonged therapy with amphotericin B is started.

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...
